Later this afternoon, I will be preparing a piece of slate for the next commission. Malaya is a Shiba Inu. I have never painted this breed of dog before and I am really excited to paint her. What a beautiful dog!
I found a nice piece of slate yesterday, but I need to make it smaller and chip the edges before I can sand it smooth for the pencil sketch. It will be nice to paint a dog after painting so many kitties and Malaya will push me out of my comfort zone. I hope that I get more dog commissions in the future.
I have some office things to catch up on first, so I should be able to get the slate prepared after lunch.
